Is it suitable for beginners?

Yes! The sessions are beginner-friendly, with guidance available throughout the session to help you build confidence and improve your printmaking skills.

Do I need to bring my own materials/equipment?

No! I provide all materials, including paper, chisels, etching scribes, and a small printing press. You're welcome to bring your own equipment if you like.

What should I expect in a session?

Each session will focus on a different type of printmaking (relief, intaglio, screen, or planographic). Throughout the session, I'll provide guidance on the steps you need to take from creating a sketch to producing your very own prints.
